In the doc where the findings are documented, someone wrote this for video DJI0015:
5:09 - 5:24 at 5:09 two vertical rocks pan onto the screen, which appear to
be part of a small natural shelter, and are visible in the center of the screen
until 5:24. There appears to be movement in this area/shelter, at first I thought
it was the light hitting the rock, but the movement looks intentional and the spot
moves away from the rock. waving motion being made from about 5:13 through 5:24 when
the camera pans away from the spot.
I looked at it a couple of times now, and indeed it looks like some waving motion. What can this be? I have no idea what size the rocks are. Can this 'shelter' house a human?
- anotheryou 8y agoI see it, but I think the motion looks more like something swaying in the wind. I marked it in a screenshot here: https://i.imgur.com/w38bGrR.jpg https://i.imgur.com/w38bGrR.jpg link to the scene here: https://youtu.be/gNZa8Ug-e40?t=309 https://youtu.be/gNZa8Ug-e40?t=309
- dTal 8y agoI've replayed the video about a dozen times now, and I see absolutely nothing where you marked - nothing that moves, and nothing that looks like a shelter. There is a small judder, when the camera pans, which I attribute to a compression artifact. It's difficult to tell the camera scale from the images, but judging by the tufts of grass (and the balloon earlier in the video) that area is quite small - those rocks are perhaps the height of a human. I would think that a shelter would be very obvious at that scale. <edit> I see the movement now, after kicking up the resolution on YouTube. The scale is more obvious with hi res as well. I'm definitely calling it a blade of grass.
- anotheryou 8y agoThe marked small dot definitely moves. Maybe just too small to be seen on a phone screen?
- EdwardDiego 8y agoI can see it when I full-screened the video on a 1920 x 1080 display.
- TeMPOraL 8y agoYup, clearly visible on full-screen at 2650x1440; in windowed standard YouTube size I couldn't spot it either. Doesn't look like a compression artifact to me (though there is an artificial-looking jump at the exact moment the camera/drone rotates).
- weaksauce 8y agolooks like a leaf in the wind to me or perhaps a small bird.
- delbel 8y agoI see absolutely nothing
- adventured 8y agoAt 5:13-5:17 in the video you can see the thing moving in the the black void area of those rocks, where the parent marked the image. The problem is, the drone proceeds to produce another better top-down view as it moves over top of the thing in question - it has little to no consequential mass (something akin to a fat reed), it's plainly not a person. Full screen at max resolution helps a lot.
- tschwimmer 8y agoI see it too and agree that it looks like the wind. The movement is too fluttery to be human movement. Too much irregular back and forth.
- ryanmarsh 8y agoCould see it clearly on 5k 27" monitor. That's something alive, not foliage. Could have been a small animal but it's hard to gauge the scale.
- projektir 8y agoI definitely see something, but at a loss as to what the something is. But it seems like it shouldn't be that hard to go back to that spot and investigate more?
- Waterluvian 8y agoI'm fascinated by how humans are amazing classifiers. But also so easily fooled, especially in groups, into seeing things that aren't there. We are probably best served being backed up by computer classifiers that may be less susceptible to bias like that. Not suggesting this instance is a false positive or negative though.
- j7ake 8y agoUnfortunately computer classifiers are trained by datasets that are labeled by human vision. There's a theoretical limit to how much better the computers do compared to humans, which is limited by our human vision.
- TeMPOraL 8y agoI watched it a couple of times; to me, it looks like an animal grazing. Don't know the geography there, so can't verify if this area has animals living in mountain.
- projektir 8y agoIf that's a human I'd really like to know why they would pick that spot, because the only reason I can think of is for hiding...
